New Mobile Phone Hunt™

Scenario: I'm hunting for a new mobile phone to replace my current personal phone, a Nokia 6111, which serves me well with its basic functions of making/receiving calls and sending SMS/MMS, but that's it. Duh. :S

Questions:
1. What do I need the new mobile phone for?
2. What are the main functions that I want?
3. Do I have particular requirements about the phone's design and user-friendliness?

Answers:
1. I'm taking for granted that every mobile phone, regardless of being a low-end or a high-end phone is equipped with all the basic and necessary functions. So, my only extra requirement is I want to be able to access my blog plus community sites via mobile conveniently. That's it. No extra surfing time, no downloading. To surf the Internet, I'll still rely on my laptop. I don't download stuffs, so no problem.

2. First, QWERTY keyboard is preferred because I want to blog via mobile. Second, camera, not less than 2.0MP. Third, not more than RM1K, hopefully.

3. Well, I want something that projects feminity, whether mine or the phone's when I'm holding it. LOL! User-friendliness is a MUST! I don't want to spend a few hours trying to figure out how to off the damn thing. Also, I don't want a phone with an unstable OS.

Preliminary Results:
E63

I found an article that highlights the comparison between E71 and E63. The main difference: PRICE. According to Mobile88, currrent reference price for E71 is RM1,250-1,280 / RM1,245-1,275 (AP). Current reference price for E63 is RM920-950 / RM830-845 (AP). Sure borr?

Check out why I choose E71.
